Something to Celebrate!

I saw this blanket in a decorating gallery on bhg.com. I wanna make it! I will make it!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

[Our first photo together. February 19, 2007]

Stu and I just celebrated our 2 year anniversary! I am so lucky to be able to find a guy who can be my best friend and my life partner. Stu is the most passionate, loving and dedicated man I could ever hope to have as a friend and I'm just lucky enough that he picked me to be more. It has been the most awesome two years!

I wanted to share a memory of our time together. It's not anything epic or even romantic, but it always sticks out in my mind. There was a night recently where we went to the grocery store together and we goofed off and laughed. I felt like I was in high school again, hanging out with a best friend. It was so rad!

I love you, honey!!! Thank you for being my everything!

I made a dozen roses from paper for Stu on our 2 year anniversary. I'm pretty broke right now. He loved them though.

These were so frustrating when I first started practicing making them that I almost gave up. But, I persisted over a week or two and eventually got really good at it, I think. I hope you think so too. =) I've also made a yellow one for Ryn, a purple for my friend Christy and a flourescent pink one with a flourescent green stem and leaves for my mom (it's the only kinda paper that was available but it turned out cute). I have a feeling I'm not done making them either... they're really fun!

I am so happy for you. You two sound like you balance each other. It so worth the work of a relationship when there is mutual love and respect. Love is friendship on fire. I know the love you talk about....and the way to keep it is to never take each other for granted.

i wonder if you have videos, teaching how to knit or crochet, coz OMG, you're good! i would like to know how you made the pink&red star balnket for your co-worker on her baby shower, it's really amusing!, i'm new in this yarn thing, thanks in advance if you're willing to teach me.
